Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 11175: Chapter 11174: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms!

The old man’s name was Chu Zhongyuan. Technically, he was the uncle of King Chu.

However, his most important role in the Chu royal residence was to assist the King of Chu in all matters.

Although King Chu himself had always been rude and rude, he did not dare to show the slightest disrespect in front of his uncle, Wang Zuo, who had been responsible for teaching him since he was young.

It was also because of this that Chu Zhongyuan’s status in the Chu royal residence was extremely transcendent. Sometimes, even the decisions of the Chu royal family had to be approved by him.

Chu Zhongyuan had played a huge role in the Chu royal residence’s current strength.

As soon as he spoke, the exasperated Lord Chu immediately restrained himself. However, after holding it in for a moment, he was still unwilling to give up.

“We can’t just let Lin Yi get away with this, can we? That guy cursed this king in front of all the officials. Uncle Wang, I can’t tolerate this, right?”

Chu Zhongyuan looked at him seriously.” Your Majesty is the King of Chu. No matter what you do, you can crush him openly. Why do you need to use these tricks and lower yourself?”

Lord Chu choked.

” With the difference between the king and that Lin Yi,” Chu Zhongyuan said in a low voice.” If everything was fair and square, he wouldn’t have the chance to hurt the king at all. The king wouldn’t have to suffer like this.”

“You’re right, Uncle Wang,” the King of Chu felt deeply ashamed.

He wasn’t lying-he’d suffered a lot from Lin Yi, and now it looked like he’d asked for it.

Lin Yi couldn’t do anything to him if he tried to hold back.

After a moment of silence, King Chu could not help but ask,” But now that things have developed to this point, what should I do? Uncle Wang, please teach me.”

“Didn’t the king and Lin Yi have a bet?”

“What Your Majesty needs to do next is to wait and see.” Chu Zhongyuan’s tone was solemn.

Lord Chu was stunned. Are we going to let him off just like that?”

Chu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice,” The king is the king of Chu, and the fate of the entire Chu royal family is on his shoulders. All of the king’s attention should be focused on the law calamity. This is what a king should do. It’s not wise to waste energy on an unimportant person like Lin Yi.”

“But…”

Lord Chu opened his mouth, but in the end, he could not say anything to refute. He could only say helplessly,” I’ll listen to Uncle Wang.”

Chu Zhongyuan revealed a gratified expression.

This current King Chu had all sorts of shortcomings. In the eyes of others, many things he had done in the past were not worthy of his status as one of the seven kings. However, there was one thing that he listened to.

Just this alone made him much stronger than the other seven kings.

For the next two days, Lord Chu didn’t ask about Lin Yi’s matters anymore, and instead focused on dealing with the laws.

To be precise, he had already completed all the preparations for the great calamity of the laws. His focus now was on the follow-up.

The great calamity of the laws was a great crisis, but for the seven kings, it was also an unprecedented opportunity!

Not only could he transfer the core rules shared by the Inner Court to his own name and complete the transfer procedures, but he could also take advantage of the opportunity of the reconstruction of the rules to cut off an unimaginable huge cake!

This was the most important thing for the seven Imperial Families.

At the same time, after Ning Yuqi took over the power of the House of Protectors, he made all kinds of arrangements under Lin Yi’s request.

One of the biggest moves was to empty the treasury of the Duke Protector’s Estate and purchase all kinds of law secret realms in a frenzy!

The so-called law secret realm was a special secret realm like the Snake God’s secret realm that bore man-made laws. To a certain extent, it could also be regarded as a man-made law base.

Without these bases, the man-made rules were like a castle in the air, unable to land.

These law mystic realms were deeply bound to man-made laws. They were originally the absolute core assets of various factions and would basically not be sold to the outside world.

But now, with the arrival of the great calamity of the rules, they were the same as those man-made rules. They had all become trash assets.

The price had already fallen to an all-time low.

Naturally, the actions of the Duke Protector’s estate could not escape the eyes of those who were watching.

“At this time, they are buying the secret realm of the laws. Are they preparing for the reconstruction of the laws?”

The reconstruction of laws could be done from scratch in a brand new secret realm, but if it was in these secret realms that had already done a lot of adaptation work, it would naturally be more efficient.

However, it was followed by a wave of mockery.

“I heard that the Duke Protector’s estate is now headed by a woman?”

“His ambition is not small. With the power of the Duke Protector’s Public House, what qualifications does he have to participate in the reconstruction of the rules? Hehe, what a whimsical idea.”

” It’s not good for a woman to be in charge. Even if we really want to bargain, we’ll have to wait until the great calamity of the rules comes before the price will really fall to the bottom. Isn’t the bargain now halfway up the mountain?”

Ning Yuqi had the same doubts.

After two days, Ning Yuqi couldn’t help but ask,” The catastrophe of the rules is coming in one or two days. After these two days, those sellers won’t be able to get away with it. The selling price will be at least 30% lower than now. Wouldn’t it be better if we buy it then?”

“Do you think the seven kings understand that?” Lin Yi asked.

Ning Yuqi was stunned. He nodded weakly.” Of course I understand.”

“They can make a move at the lowest point because they have the right. If we follow them, what do you think our chances are?” Lin Yi said.

Ning Yuqi was stunned. Then, his eyes lit up and he looked enlightened.

Once the law calamity fell, these law mystic realms would indeed become trash assets. However, to the seven kings who naturally held the power to rebuild the laws, these were high-quality assets that could quickly turn waste into treasure.

If these law secret realms fell into their hands, even if they did not personally rebuild them, just by contracting them out, they would be able to earn at least a hundred times the profit.

Such an alluring cake, those great dukes led by the seven kings, naturally would not give it up to others.

Not only would they have the qualifications to participate in the reconstruction of the laws, but they would also strictly control them. Even these law mystic realms would not be able to be bought by just anyone.

At this critical moment, the law calamity hadn’t officially descended yet, and the seven kings ‘attention hadn’t completely shifted to this. This was Lin Yi’s last chance to strike.

The only downside was that the price was slightly higher than the real bottom.

But this wasn’t a problem for Lin Yi.

After all, as long as he grasped the reconstruction of the rules, no matter how much he obtained now, it would be a huge profit when the time came.

This was because he had just arrived at the Inner Royal Court and his foundation was too shallow. The only power he could use now was the power of the Duke Protector’s Residence.

Otherwise, he could earn even more in the future!
